Texas Instruments Graphics Architecture
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Texas Instruments Graphics Architecture (TIGA) is a graphics interface standard created by Texas Instruments that defined the software interface to graphics processors. Using this standard, any software written for TIGA should work correctly on a TIGA-compliant graphics interface card.
The TIGA standard is independent of resolution and colour depth which provides a certain degree of future proofing. This standard was designed for high-end graphics.
However, TIGA was not widely adopted. Instead, VESA and Super VGA became the de facto standard for PC graphics devices after the VGA.
Texas Instrument's TI 34010 and TI 34020 are two TIGA-compliant graphics processors.
PPC_060 was a well-known TIGA cards manufactured by Number Nine Visual Technology.
